Additional Description: The marker is located on the grounds of the Salinas Sports Complex, which has been the home of the California Rodeo since 1911. During the Second World War, the California Rodeo grounds served as an assembly and processing center for ethnic Japanese prior to their relocation to internment camps, from April 27th to July 4, 1942. Later that year the Rodeo grounds were used by the US Army VII Corps, serving as the housing and training grounds for the First Filipino Infantry Regiment.
